And for complainers like me, it comes from a love for the game. It's the same type of emotion that prompted you to make your post I would imagine. Cheers ;) |
Game software is essentially a publishing business model. According to the line of thinking in the first post, in a few years (if not already), you should expect to walk into a book store and find nothing but Clive Cussler, Tom Clancy, Dan Brown, Stephen King, and other mega-bestsellers because their sales figures so outstrip every other author's. And it is true that the book publishing business is driven by blockbusters; the vast majority of publishing profits come from them. But in fact, you will find that the range of both subjects and authors has been expanding dramatically in recent years, and not only on Amazon. Niches may not be blockbusters, but they can be profitable. I don't think there's anything factually to support the conclusion reached.
My price point for a game that works out of the box is $100. I am willing to pay a $50 premium to not put up with the hassle of crashes, flukes, etc. that MAY later get fixed in a patch. Maybe someday a quality- and customer service-conscious game publisher will take me up on this offer. I hope so. |
I absolutely agree with heartc,my best regards to devs team. At the same time I dare to say that UBIsoft can give devs a time to debug and make workable all declared features like chronometers / radars etc ( at least if UBI cares about sales and fairplay reputation because of UBI management made stupid schedule for game release).
Now I do targeting manually and i m fine with it but its job for approach officer, not for captain LOL. Chronometer feature for example is a compromise between TOTAL manual targeting and Fire and Forget system for 'shooters'. As one guy said ( I belive it's quote from Einstein) ' The Quantity Of Intelligence on the Earth is constant number. But , note that population is increasing'. |

Now back to the North-East corner of the Celebs Sea to finish off my Patrol Objectives. I still have 4 torpedos and 3/4 tank of deisel and anyone who doesn't think there is a lot of action in that particular area in '43, just hasn't been paying attention. JCC |

What have I learnt by reading this post?
Normally I check out this forum to learn tips and tricks to enhance my Sipper abilities. If you look hard enough there are good posts out there to find. A lot of you guys have taught me some very handy skills to maximise the experience I get from this game. :rock: I was concerned when I read about the low sales of this game and that if it causes to many problems there might not be another. Someone posted that this should not happen and reffered to book shops as an example. Im not sure if this would work the same with games, in that the develpment costs must affect the number of games required to make a profit. 300,000 * $50 = 1.5Mil. Is this enough for Ubi? Im not sure. I hope so or there wont be a fifth. If there is a fifth then lets hope the dev team can continue to put their all into it as I am sure some of the posts about this game must make them think "&$%£ them". I think the person that posted, "they will be gone from the forum soon" is right. Everyone is entitled to a rant now and then, but some of it seems to be endless. Anyway im off to search for that big target that is waiting just over the horizon and for the first time I will call it in to HQ. So thanks for that tip too. :up: |

Some time ago I heard people saying SH4 is bugged! I'm going to keep playing STALKER. Well I also have stalker... if you go to thier forums you will see many threads about bugs. People were talking about EA earlier as if they make bug free games. I'd like those people to remember Battlefield 2 and the facelift called BF2142. (Same engine as BF2 which I don't complain about but it also carried bugs from the previous version.)
Now I may not have a resume in computing but I do have a shelf full of games and been playing PC's since I had an XT. (Think of a 286 but still older, good old CGA monitor.) SH4, is IMO a great game that was released early. I have faith in UBI that they will continue working on the title as long as it is needed. I have this faith because other sim titles I have purchased did the same thing. il2, Sh3.... SH4 is a great game. The series is a favorite of mine and will be as long as they make them. |
